Chapter 343 Rescue Plan 3

Night, as dark as ink, enveloped the town of Desolation. This once bustling town now appeared exceptionally desolate, with only a few scattered lights flickering in the darkness.

Nine-Tailed Fox and Dark Night moved through the alleys. Following Lu Lingxi Yao's instructions, they arrived at a long-abandoned courtyard in the town. The courtyard gate was dilapidated, and weeds grew rampant inside, exuding a gloomy atmosphere.

"This is it." Nine-Tailed Fox stopped, her fox eyes narrowing slightly as she warily scanned her surroundings.

Dark Night nodded, his expression grave. "There's a barrier here."

"Hmm, Nalan Rongshang really went to great lengths to prevent Senior Xiling from escaping." Nine-Tailed Fox sneered, stretching out his hand and gathering a ball of seven-colored light at his fingertips. "However, this level of barrier is no match for me."

With a gentle wave of its hand, the seven-colored light, like a key, pierced the gap in the barrier. With a soft "click," the barrier shattered.

The two silently slipped into the courtyard, Nine-Tailed Fox in front and Dark Night behind. Their movements were light and agile, without making a sound.

After passing through the overgrown courtyard, they arrived at what appeared to be an ordinary room. Nine-Tails stopped and pointed to the ground, saying, "The entrance to the dungeon is right here."

An Ye crouched down and carefully observed the ground. He noticed a stone slab that was slightly different from the others. He reached out and gently tapped the slab, which produced a hollow echo.

“Found it,” Dark Night said. He placed his hands on the stone slab and pushed hard. The stone slab slowly slid to one side, revealing a dark hole.

A cold, damp aura wafted out of the cave entrance, mixed with a faint smell of blood. The two exchanged a glance and then jumped into the dungeon.

The dungeon was pitch black. Nine-Tailed Fox took out a luminous pearl from its bosom, and its soft light instantly illuminated the surrounding environment.

This is a long, narrow passageway with various instruments of torture hanging on the walls on both sides, still bearing traces of dark red blood.

"It seems people are frequently tortured here," Dark Night said with a hint of disgust.

Nine-Tails didn't speak. He quickened his pace and walked deeper into the passage.

At the end of the passage was a heavy iron door, covered in rust and engraved with strange runes.

“There’s a restriction on this door,” Dark Night said, reaching out to gently touch the runes on the iron door. “However, this restriction is useless to me.”

A faint light emanated from An Ye's fingertips as he gently traced the patterns of the runes, causing them to dim.

With a "click," the iron door slowly opened, revealing a simple stone bed in the center of the dungeon. Lying on the stone bed was a weak woman. Her plain white dress was tattered and stained with blood and dirt. Her face was pale and her breath was faint.

"Senior Xiling!" Nine-Tailed Fox exclaimed, rushing to the stone bed and gently helping Xiling Qianluo up. "Senior Xiling, how are you?"

He stood guard at the door in the dark, vigilantly observing his surroundings to prevent any sneak attacks.

Xiling Qianluo slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the Nine-Tailed Fox, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes, "Who...are you?"

"I am Lu Lingxi Yao's contracted spirit beast," Nine-Tailed Fox quickly explained. "I'm here to save you."

“That little girl…” Xi Ling Qianluo’s eyes lit up when she heard the name, “She… came too?”

“Yes, Master and Nalan Rongzhi are dealing with Nalan Rongshang in the Wasteland City, and they specifically sent us here to rescue you,” Nine-Tailed Fox said. “Senior Xiling, don’t worry, we will definitely get you out of here safely.”

Xi Ling Qianluo nodded weakly, "Thank you..."

Nine-Tailed Fox took out a pill from her bosom and gave it to Xiling Qianluo. "Senior Xiling, this is a healing pill. Take it first to recover some strength."

The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, and a warm current flowed throughout Xiling Qianluo's body, making her feel that she had regained some strength.

"Let's go," Nine-Tails said, carefully helping Xiling Qianluo up as they prepared to leave the dungeon.

Just then, a chilling laugh suddenly came from outside the dungeon.
